if you're in a relationship... and your significant other cheats on you... how many times before you say enough is enough ?

    I think that it's different for every couple. In my opinion, sometimes you shouldn't forgive the first time ("Once a cheater, always a cheater").

    But assuming that you're in a committed, long-term relationship, I say you give it at least one good, honest try before throwing in the towel. It could have just been an isolated incident. But make it clear that if it happens again, that's habitual, and while you may be able to "forgive" it, it's demeaning to tolerate it. No one should stay in a relationship where their trust is constantly violated.

    Just my opinion.

    I don't know if you can ever truly forgive, it will always be there like a cut throbbing waiting to open up and leave you a bloody mess.

    Saying this I am guilty of trying to make it work because I love him so much the thought of him not being part of my life is devastating to me and worse I guess then his lies.

    I feel like such a fool and a sap for not being strong enough to extract him from my life once in for all.

    I want the happy ever after and it will never come if I let someone treat me without the respect I deserve, to bad I can't get my Fing heart to understand that.
